An elastomer, a process for forming an elastomer, and an article of manufacture are disclosed. The elastomer comprises a phosphazene backbone and at least one polyhexahydrotriazine component. The process for forming the elastomer includes obtaining an amine-terminated cyclotriphosphazene, reacting it with a diamine to form a phosphazene-containing PHT polymer, and then reacting the phosphazene-containing PHT polymer with a side-chain modified cyclic phosphazene to form a PCPHT elastomer with halogen ligands. The PCPHT elastomer with halogen ligands is then reacted with an alkoxide to form a PCPHT elastomer with at least one ether-linked side chain. The article of manufacture comprises a material comprising an elastomer having a phosphazene backbone and at least one PHT component.
